Death Wobble prevention!
So after reading many threads about people's death wobble's. And seems the culprit is worn out suspension and steering bits. Was wondering if anyone had actually made a thorough list of all of what needs done to prevent the DW? As far as what bushing etc. Mine doesn't DW but the suspension just feels tired and a bit wobbly on some harder bumps. Would like to tackle this before it gets to the point where I actually have the dreaded Death Wobble.

i made this very type of thread about 1-2 weeks ago but it seems to not be very popular
anything that has a joint or linkage under the front can be a culprit, ball joints, trac bar, ect. or your alignment can cause it too

I don't have DW currently, what I want to do is replace worn out items to prevent DW from occuring in the future.
